Approach to support
Everybody who lives at Whitrout Road, has their own person-centred care plan, which is co-produced with input from the individual, their family members and professionals involved in their care.

Our support approaches include:
- Positive behaviour support (PBS)

I love to see how our staff team go the extra mile to give our tenants new opportunities. For example, we have supported people to go to concerts and engage in the local community by entering in gardening competitions.
